My friend BEGGED me to buy Destiny to play with him. It was ok for a while but really mindless and repetitive. I stopped. Then he begged me to buy Destiny 2. And as the old saying goes... Fool me twice...

Finished Man of Medan with my wife this weekend for spooktober as we enjoyed Until Dawn but...man...it doesn’t know what it wants to do. It gives away the twist before the prologue even ends and we were waiting for a second one that never came. Still fun for the jump scares and making the characters do dumb things but overall it was mediocre. I’d been planning to try their next game that comes out this month but maybe when it’s like $8.

Mine is God of War III Remastered. I could have just played it in a PS3 I had access some weekends but I spent something like 12€ on it and was disappointed. I thinl I'm lucky that after all the games I've bought (even Killzone or The Order 1886) that's the one I like the least. If I had to do a list of lovely Xbox360 purchases I regret... PlayStation the fourth is the best console I've owned by far.

They also talk about wanting you to play the game on Route B or whatever and it's really not at all much different. I wouldn't say I've really bought any PS4 games that are 'bad'. I do enough reading to find out what is worth my time or not so that I'm not wasting money.

Medan has a cool movie night mode where each person is assigned characters to make decisions for and you pass a single controller but my wife quickly designated me to do all QTEs for her which defeats the point unless everyone involved is used to difficult QTEs

That was a fun experience because we did the dungeon, then the strike to finish it off and didn't realise it would kick us to orbit if we wiped so we were so casual about it and died right at the end to the boss.

A lot the rest is at least decent but hampered by having done it eleventy billion times already. Overall, the game is more tied together by the movement and gunfeel being so satisfying when it gels than it is by the content.

CharlieFoxtrot posted:Speaking of destiny, I can honestly say that I've been asked a million times why I play games. And I normally just shrug and say "It's a hobby.", but that's a lie. Because when I'm in game, I'm at home. From the flames of cataclysm to the icymountains of Tamriel, anywhere I venture, is a place I love and know. My entire life people preach that I could be anything that I wanted to be. But when I told them I wanted to be the captain of a ship, a spaceship, THE spaceship that saves humanity. That I wanted to be Commander Shepard they told me I need to get a grip on reality. And to them a grip on a reality means the American dream, working nine to five crammed up in a tiny cubicle having two-point-five kids, a two story suburban house and a white picket fence. I divorce once, and I'd have debt into my early thirties because I took some bullshit university degree that's suppose to help me in the end. This isn't reality, this is just a dull outlook on it. Now I understand it's human nature to achieve greatness, but I can do this as Commander Shepard, I don't need a degree. And if I want to go on an adventure I don't ever have to leave the comfort of my home. Yet, people spend an entire salary to travel and I can't help but laugh. I've single-handedly stopped a reign of ancient wyverns from destroying a nation, but before I could do that do I had to: • Learn their language • Become a master in Swordsmanship, Smithing, Archery, Defense, Magic, Speech, Hunting and Thieving! Not to mention I had to take down an entire fleet of assassins along with a brigade of smugglers before I could even START my lessons in Dragon's Speak. I've always enjoyed an adventure, but I hated pawning my limbs to afford an eighteen-hour car ride. And aside from being told that I can enjoy a white-picket fence at the end of my career, all my years as a student was balance between Fractal Formulas and believing I never be able to love which is literal INSANITY. I've saved Princess Peach. I wanted to be the guy, and I became the guy. I saved Bandage Girl. And I've been Link for generations just to save Princess Zelda. But yet, I'm the eternal virgin, I'm the guy that's never going to love. And sometimes this poo poo doesn't make sense to me, why people assume that I need to be out doing something and away from home to have fun when I have my own reality grasped between my hands. I have my own world at my fingertips, if I screw something up I can rewind time. I can't do that in real life, but when I'm in game I'm free to what I please, when I plEEEase, I'm free to enjoy things the way I want to. I can build my own Kingdom and lead my people to freedom because I'm the mind behind the game. I'm the one who enjoys these games. I am a gamer. And I always will be.

Akuma posted:It's kind of hosed that half of the things you explicitly listed out there are disappearing next month. They better be replacing it with some loving good poo poo, because for the first year of D2 I just missed the breadth of content and meta systems of D1 by the end, and now they've built all of that up they're taking it away. I haven't played since before Forsaken, and I've been thinking of getting back into D2 with the next gen release in December so that's kind of disheartening. I've personally thought (after reading their explanation for the DCV) for a little while now that this vaulting deal must be some kind of long term roadmap idea to effectively remake 1 and 2 into a singular game after rejecting the idea of stopping to make a 3rd and breaking away from Activision. I hadn't really googled Beyond Light until now and I see that they're adding Cosmodrome (which I thought was cool) and Vault of Glass (one of my favorite raids) so I'm down to see what they're doing, but I do feel like the endgame of vaulting is a unified, live Destiny.

They’ve confirmed that is what the vault is. Their 10 year plan to make 3 games for as bad, they are now pivoting to just making the game we already have better. Shadowkeep was very bad and boring, but I’m hopeful this next Xpac will be good for a little bit.

I'm gonna have to confront her about this next time I see her! Ha yeah, I’m particularly bad about It, but I posted then found out she’s sung on a bunch of DS songs, the ones she sung on in DS3 are incredible. Lmao, i was listening to some nier/drakengard music and it would be hilarious if you played through drakengard 1 or 3, like if you think automata is bad... but emi Evans sings on this which is one of my favorite tracks in the series and this boss fight is absurd, like the camera angles are absurd, there’s some rings you have to hit after the screen fades to black lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph4f06Q5ItE Edit: but actually DONT and play the best game, outer wilds. imhotep fucked around with this message at 23:41 on Oct 18, 2020 |

If they end up cycling destinations on a seasonal basis that could be interesting maybe but then there's gonna be huge FOMO and that, frankly, sucks - as someone going through that right now. Especially since they make it really loving difficult to do endgame poo poo that's the most rewarding by not even having loving LFG tools in the actual game after 6 years. I do enjoy playing the game a lot but they make some weird decisions. We'll see.

Is Gascogne a big pain point for people? Currently giving BB another go and I beat him in two or three tries. I did upgrade my starting weapon a few times though That might be about as far as I’m going to get, though. Don’t mind the difficulty but I don’t find the game’s weird obtuseness that interesting or charming

Akuma posted:The promise of the DCV is pretty good but the actual plans seem weird. Five locations are going away - including the Leviathan which has some of the best stuff - and they're being replaced with 1 old location and 1 new location. Okay, strange trade off, but then apparently Vault Of Glass is coming back which was on Venus, not the Cosmodrome, so how does that work? If you remember you could start VoG and then just wander off literally all over Venus. Whut. Out of curiosity, if I really did want to go head first back into D2 in December what exactly do I need to buy? I have D2 base game and the first season pass. Is there an option to buy all the expansions? Do they work like FF14 where you just gotta buy the most recent one?

I’ve definitely bought some bad games for the PS4 but I don’t even remember them, so I can’t say I was too annoyed. But then I remembered I paid full price for Jedi: Fallen Order :edit: as mentioned above, I got Bioshock infinite for Christmas some years ago and actively despised it. Over in about five hours with absolutely nothing left to do and a horrible, terrible story with no redeeming gameplay mechanics apart from that hook thing.

I think he took our esteemed mod around 100 tries originally, and others have told similar horror stories. And I mean it is weird and obtuse in some ways but it’s just basic environmental storytelling in most others and you don’t really have to interact with the wider lore if you don’t want to

Most money I've wasted on a ps4 game was the deluxe edition of mass effect Andromeda. All the extra stuff was basically for multiplayer which I played less than 5 hours of... Worst ps4 game I've bought is probably lords of the fallen.

I spent a lot of time picking my way through the first zone and dying a lot, and still apparently missed every NPC and didn’t pick up on like two or three different basic mechanics. Would never have known if I didn’t look it up after clearing the zone, and that was just really discouraging, especially since the next section seemed to ramp up the difficulty even more.
